ProQuest LLC, Ph.D. Dissertation, Idaho State University
There is a steady increase in the enrollment of international students from across the globe to pursue counseling degrees in the United States. This present study explored the lived experiences of reentry by International Counseling graduates from programs accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counselor and Related Educational Programs (CACREP, 2016) in the United States. An Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) methodology was utilized to collect data from four international counseling graduates in four different countries using two rounds of semi structured interviews and subsequent coding for prominent themes. The results show individual contextual experiences as well as common themes across all participants which included Culture, Community, Adjustment and Growth. Recommendations for counseling programs as well as counseling professionals, especially, counselor educators working with international students are discussed.
